About Buddy Budget

A cloud-hosted net worth tracking and management platform built with passion and the belief that everyone deserves access to powerful, ready-to-use financial tools.

The Mission

Buddy Budget was created with a singular focus: to provide comprehensive, ready-to-use tools for tracking and managing your net worth. Too often, powerful net worth tracking tools are locked behind expensive paywalls or require complex setup. I believe that understanding and growing your net worth should be simple, accessible, and powerful.

This cloud-hosted platform combines advanced financial modeling techniques—including Monte Carlo simulations for net worth predictions, real-time asset tracking with Yahoo Finance, and comprehensive portfolio management—with modern web technologies to create an intuitive, powerful net worth companion that's ready to use right out of the box.

Track your assets, monitor your investments, predict your future net worth—all with institutional-grade tools in a simple, accessible platform. No installation, no setup, just powerful net worth tracking. That's the Buddy Budget promise.

About the Creator

Hi, I'm Daniele Roccaforte! I'm a software developer based in Turin, Italy—a city known for its rich history, incredible coffee culture, and stunning views of the Alps. When I'm not coding or hiking in the nearby mountains, I'm diving deep into financial markets and building tools that help people take control of their wealth.

Buddy Budget started as a personal challenge: I wanted to track my own net worth with precision, predict future growth using data science, and monitor my investments in real-time. After months of building features for myself, I realized this could help others who share the same frustration with expensive, complicated financial tools that require extensive setup.

With a background in software engineering and a passion for financial independence, I combined modern web technologies with advanced statistical methods to create a cloud-hosted platform that's ready to use immediately. From Monte Carlo simulations that predict your financial future to real-time portfolio tracking powered by market APIs, every feature is designed with one goal: helping you understand exactly where your wealth is and where it's going.

I'm a firm believer in open source and the power of community. Buddy Budget is my contribution to making wealth-building accessible to everyone, regardless of where you live or what you earn. Whether you're in Turin, Tokyo, or Texas, powerful net worth tracking should be just a click away. Let's build the future of net worth tracking together!
